A Spring Tease

I couldn't help but start thinking about spring this morning and found myself daydreaming about flip flops and floral dresses. Sadly 40 degree weather felt like a mini heatwave, but I could tell the dogs had a bit of spring fever themselves. The pups seemed to have an extra bounce in their step and Trudie went so far as to greet anyone (and everyone) who walked by her game of fetch. Something was definitely in the air today. However, my daydreams quickly fizzled as I realized it was still the middle of January and that dresses could never be an option for a dog-walker.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Oh Cooper....

Ever just feel like you need to lie down. It doesn't matter where, it could be on a sofa, or on a cozy, plush rug, or a snowbank. That's how Cooper feels all the time. This is Cooper. If ever there was inspiration for the Jim Hensen Creature Shop, it's Coop. He's a big 8-or-so month old Bernese mix. You can find him several times a day at Corridor Park running with all of his friends... or by himself. Cooper is still learning that he can't charge and tackle every dog he meets... boundaries. He's an absolute mush of a dog though, so please say hello if you ever see him.

    So look who is back in the hood... HAVI POTATOS!!!  She reconnected with her best friend Bella today and had such a good time.  If you have seen these two in action you know what I am talking about. 

 So welcome back, and if you see us out feel free to stop and say, "hello". She just adores attention! 

 

Meet my friend Jenny and her baby bullie, Bea. We spent the afternoon romping in the snow and playing today - so fun!

Snowy Day in the City

Ahhhh, a snowy Sunday in the city. What could be better? Lou and I went for a great walk at Pope John Paul Park where we were able hike through the snow and enjoy the beauty of being alone on such a glorious morning.

Oh Chappy

Chappy is a long time Urban Hound. He has been with us from the start, and is always eager to be out and about... even in the extreme cold. Perhaps that is why he and Trevor get along so well. The colder, the wetter, the crazier the weather, the happier they are. Chappy, we love you.

Meet Marley...

Last week we welcomed a new pup into the Urban Hound family. Marley is an adorable Puggle with a face that almost screams Basset Hound. He has big ears and a bunch of extra skin wrinkled up on his face. He's awfully cute and quite precocious in the snow. Today he chased a few squirrels, stared down an alley cat, and literally slipped onto his back on the ice in his neighborhood.

If you see Marley's unmistakable face out there, be sure to say hello.
